Adoption Tails: Shelley and Lily

  Shelley

1 day: Shelley, now Nyx (Goddess of the Night) has eaten and drunk. She seems content but does not appear to have used tray. Nyx shows no fear of the three people in her new home or of her new surroundings. The owner thinks Nyx already sees herself as head of the family!3 days: Nyx has taken over and is very content with no concerns with the owner or her son.

 1 week: Everything is going well and Nyx is right at home. The owner is trying to stop her from jumping on the kitchen bench. See attached photo of her sleeping on the printer. "If I sit still I will blend into the furniture and she won't see me!"

 3 weeks: Nyx seems very content at home and wants to be part of the action. She is a great sleeper. See attached photo of her sleeping in some bowl on the dining table.

 
1 month: Nyx is still the head of the household! The owner thinks she is starting to understand the tone of “No” as part of the attempts to stop her from jumping into the bench. They now make sure the bench is left clear while she is still learning. Nyx loves people… and boxes and bags.


Lily1 day: Lily is doing very well. She slept on the owner's bed on and off all night. Lots of kneading and chewing on blankets and exploring. She was very eager to get out of the bedroom this morning to explore the house. Most of the day she sat and stared at the lorikeets outside. She has had an active day of exploring so the owner is hoping Lily will sleep soundly tonight. The owner wants to thank Lily's previous owner as she is an absolute treasure and could tell that she was loved very much as Lily is affectionate and confident.

1 week: Lily has adapted very well, relaxing on the owner's mother's lap in the TV room after getting her front nails trimmed. She has a favourite place in the house to watch the lorikeets during the day. At night, she is fascinated with the local possum. She will not come to bed until the possum leaves. The owners are extremely happy with her and they think she likes them too.

1 month: The owner and her family love Lily and she is confident that Lily loves them.
